Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

If someone could post their gray batsuit for DSL up, that would be greatly appreciated.

All you have to do is edit the batsuit file. It's in UI -> botlab. You need something like Paint.NET to edit it properly, though, and it is free.

I've done this multiple times, all I get is a transparent batsuit with a line of static at the bottom.

Have you turned off RLE compression* on the .tga?
RA2 hates that.

*or whatever it's called.

You need to save it as a 512x512 .tga file. But don't select Auto-Detect, make sure that 32-bit is selected.

How I managed to not notice that is beyond me.

Now you have 3 days to enter.

Unless you guys just want me to start.

I'll look for the post, but I'm pretty sure you can't cut the deadline.

Here we are:

#13 - Number of entrants allowed/ or set deadline for entries (deadline can be extended, but not shortened)

I've cut my deadline before and no one cared. Plus I seriously doubt anyone else wants to join.

We don't know that. Besides, if you already start and someone comes along saying "Hey, I was building something and I was going to send it to you in 3 days when the deadline was", then you've basically screwed them over. I can definitely see why that rule would be there. Just wait until the deadline comes, you're not going to lose out on anything besides a bit of time.

Did you tell us? I see no mention of it.

NFX has a good point, and it's a rule.

I find it unfair that I can't start yet, because we never had to follow that rule before.

That's because it's a new rule. Everyone has to follow it from this point on, and besides, I've already said, you're not going to lose out on anything besides time.

That is exactly what I'm worried about, having school and all.
